    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Motion. However, I am a bit worried because many of these Motions that we pass urge the Government. There must be a big pool somewhere where all these Motions that urge are kept. I wish the drafter would amend it and say “resolve”. I know when we say “resolve”, it will have huge financial implications but we do not have to do everything at ago. If we want to resolve this and decide to start, we will prioritise which schools to start with. We can take schools with big populations and start there. However, I support the Motion. There are large primary schools with about 1,000 kids. With the FPE funds and funds that are raised by the parents and donors, that is a considerable amount of money that needs management. Good management is important for every institution. It results in efficiency, cost effectiveness and better outcome. When you talk of better outcome for our children, primary education is the foundation. If it does not come out right, children lose out for life. I, therefore, do not see why it should be accepted by us that secondary schools with bursars are better managed and that primary schools can run with teachers who are doubling up as managers as well and in The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
